well if you looked closely at my prior post (not the one you quoted) you would see I was comparing him to OJ in the sense Michael was found innocent yet people still question his guilt. Also, I mentioned IF Michael molested those kids it's not THAT different from physically killing somebody as that pain and confusion of being molested has the potential to KILL a child's spirit and soul (with or w/out years of proper counseling). I also admitted to being wrong about his writing credits on Invincible... honestly the album sucked, you being a HUGE fan of his enjoyed it and that's wonderful. Me being a fan of GOOD Michael Jackson songs, thought it was an insult and a waste of vital resources. I'm a firm believer of the phrase... if it smells like ****, it's probably ****. I gave Michael the benefit of the doubt back in 1993, he very well may be innocent but I, personally, think he very well may be guilty.

As far as ignoring all the personal **** and worrying more about his music, if he started putting out some good music perhaps that would be possible. And who the hell knows (or cares) HOW the erotica book got there? you can come up with thousands of ways to say Michael himself didn't buy the book or personally place it on his own bookshelf but that doesn't prove to me that he didn't want it on his bookshelf, in his home. He got off and has his freedom... he will NEVER shed his possible molester cloak as long as he lives, 10+ years of being accused of touching kids kind of does that to a person of his stature.
